DrJekle 4 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Question regarding if my video card is capable of the open glad option in theater. I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 and I use to be able to have the option checked and everything set to auto. Now theater will not play anything. I just uninstalled and reinstalled theater and tried playback and everything works, but the minute ni select open GL it will not play anything. Even after restarting and unchecking open GL still no play back.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest asrequested Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 It supports it. What hardware acceleration are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJekle 4 Posted January 8, 2019 Author Share Posted January 8, 2019 Select media (movie, live tv, recorded tv) hit play and circle pops up and just spins. Eventually times out. I did finally uninstall and reinstall theater and selected playback of live tv. Worked, then I went into openGL settings, selected auto only and tried playback again, and nothing works.

Guest asrequested Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Try using spline36 as the default scaling method, instead of opengl-hq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try reinstalling the latest driver https://www.geforce.com/drivers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asrequested Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) And use nvdec copyback for hardware acceleration Edited January 8, 2019 by Doofus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJekle 4 Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 Used nvdec copy back and spline 36 same issue plus drivers are all updated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asrequested Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 (edited) Ok, replace the mpv app in Theater, with the one I'm attaching. Just unzip and overwrite to this location: %AppData%\Roaming\Emby-Theater\system\x64\mpv Edited January 9, 2019 by Doofus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJekle 4 Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 Done and still spinning circle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asrequested Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 (edited) Ok, so one more time, download the mpv I'm attaching. This time, unzip it to its own folder, anywhere you like. Double click the mpv.exe and drag 'n' drop a video onto it. Does it play? Edited January 9, 2019 by Doofus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJekle 4 Posted January 10, 2019 Author Share Posted January 10, 2019 I was able to play a file by dragging and dropping it. Windows defender did pop up asking permission though when I first opened mpv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asrequested Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 (edited) I was able to play a file by dragging and dropping it. Windows defender did pop up asking permission though when I first opened mpv Ok, that's good. That means your gpu is fine. Ok, so try this. If you look where you unzipped that, you'll see a folder 'portable_config", in there is a file 'mpv.conf', open it. Delete the line 'gpu-api=opengl', and change 'hwdec=nvdec' to 'hwdec=d3d11va'. Then repeat the test. Does it play? (I just spotted an error I made in the original mpv.conf. I used a '-' not '=') It should look like this hwdec=d3d11va profile=gpu-hq Edited January 10, 2019 by Doofus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest asrequested Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 If it doesn't work, mpv will just shut down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asrequested Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Because of my previous error, try again with this config gpu-api=opengl hwdec=nvdec profile=gpu-hq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
